Got a ton of education, qualifications and experience to work my way up through various jobs. Finally took a job a few years back with a significant pay raise... That is, until inflation offset the wage gains.
So yeah I'm 10-15% less motivated than I was previously. Every year in this economy that one doesn't get a 10% raise, it is functionally the same as taking a pay cut.
As someone who just got the first raise in 3 years (the last one was 2% as well) and it was 2% because they felt bad and said it's for cost of living, I just laughed and said this is insulting more than useful...
